My wife and i had 3 nights from January 16th in New Zealand as part of our OZ/NZ trip and had planned to stay 1 night in Tauranga and move on. We ended up staying the 3 nights in Coniston House as Jude and Lawerence's hospitality was unbelieveable. So that says it all.They are both seasoned travellers and know exactly... More

We throughly enjoyed every moment of our stay here, and wish it could have been longer than one night. Jude & Lawrence couldnt have been more helpful from welcoming us with a wonderful glass of wine/bottle of larger, to an upgrade to the suite as it was our honeymoon (such a comfy bed, and we even saw the other room...

We stayed here in November, sadly for only the one evening, where Jude and Lawrence gave us excellant hospitality. We were on our honeymoon, and as we were the only guests they had, they upgraded us for free to the larger suite, and really made us feel spoilt. It would have been lovely to have stayed longer with them. The... More

We mostly appreciated Judy and Lawrence hospitality. After a long drive it was great to feel welcomed with a drink, a great recommendation of where to go for dinner, a good bed to sleep in and a delicious breakfast in the morning. We highly recommend a stop at this hidden gem.
